In the wake of President Donald Trump’s strike against Iran’s nuclear sites Saturday, the former president of Russia is now warning: “A number of countries are ready to directly supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads.”
The comment comes from Dmitry Medvedev, who currently the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council.
In a series of Sunday posts on X, Medvedev did not specifically name the countries supposedly willing to provide nuclear weapons to Tehran, but asked rhetorically, “What have the Americans accomplished with their nighttime strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran?
He then provided his answers.
“Critical infrastructure of the nuclear fuel cycle appears to have been unaffected or sustained only minor damage.”
“The enrichment of nuclear material – and, now we can say it outright, the future production of nuclear weapons – will continue.”
“Israel is under attack, explosions are rocking the country, and people are panicking.”
“The US is now entangled in a new conflict, with prospects of a ground operation looming on the horizon.
“Donald Trump, once hailed as ‘president of peace,’ has now pushed the US into another war.
“The vast majority of countries around the world oppose the actions of Israel and the United States.
“At this rate, Trump can forget about the Nobel Peace Prize – not even with how rigged it has become. What a way to kick things off, Mr. President. Congratulations!”
Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned on Sunday the U.S. will suffer “everlasting consequences” as a result of its Operation Midnight Hammer.
“The United States, a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, has committed a grave violation of the UN Charter, international law and the NPT by attacking Iran’s peaceful nuclear installations,” Araghchi said.
“The events this morning are outrageous and will have everlasting consequences. Each and every member of the UN must be alarmed over this extremely dangerous, lawless and criminal behavior.”
“In accordance with the UN Charter and its provisions allowing a legitimate response in self-defense, Iran reserves all options to defend its sovereignty, interest, and people.”
